There is no way to make sure runtime won't use the extra annotations for runtime

They are in the byte code.

The flip side is if this is actually adds capabilities desirable in well-known platforms like OSGi, maybe should create a standard annotation and officially add it to the API so everyone has it.

This is the fundamental question, whether to ignore certain annotations that have no impact on compatibility.  This is also somewhat of a slippery slope as the annotation class could be enhanced in a way that does cause compatibility concerns, even if the annotation is a standard annotation.
